It's quite obvious for anyone with a good eye. One other bad part is fuel economy if you are on it will drop to around 14.2 MPG in the city. My current car is a 328D which gets around 34-35 MPG in the city and mid to upper 40's on highway. The new M340i is much faster and more quiet. It consumes twice as much fuel in the city but is not twice as fast. Definitely much faster though but not twice as fast nor does it have twice the top speed either. I do wish they sold it with the newer 6 cylinder Diesel engine. That would have been quite nice
